2 laws of the State; however, unless the State requests a
3 hearing for the purpose of sentencing the minor under Chapter
4 V of the Unified Code of Corrections, the Court must proceed

24 or her right to have the matter proceed in Juvenile Court.
25 (ii) If before trial or plea an information or
26 indictment is filed that includes one or more charges

-9- LRB9213222RCsbam
1 finds that the minor committed an offense other than first
2 degree murder committed during the course of either
3 aggravated criminal sexual assault, criminal sexual assault,
4 or aggravated kidnapping, the finding shall not invalidate
5 the verdict or the prosecution of the minor under the
6 criminal laws of the State; however, unless the State
7 requests a hearing for the purpose of sentencing the minor
8 under Chapter V of the Unified Code of Corrections, the Court
9 must proceed under Sections 5-705 and 5-710 of this Article.
10 To request a hearing, the State must file a written motion
11 within 10 days following the entry of a finding or the return

25 of the public require sentencing under Chapter V of the
26 Unified Code of Corrections; and (f) whether the minor
27 possessed a deadly weapon when committing the offense. The
28 rules of evidence shall be the same as if at trial. If after
29 the hearing the court finds that the minor should be

31 then the court shall sentence the minor accordingly having
32 available to it any or all dispositions so prescribed.
33 (5) (a) The definition of delinquent minor under Section
34 5-120 of this Article shall not apply to any minor who is
-10- LRB9213222RCsbam
1 charged with a violation of subsection (a) of Section 31-6 or
2 Section 32-10 of the Criminal Code of 1961 when the minor is
3 subject to prosecution under the criminal laws of this State
4 as a result of the application of the provisions of Section

12 may proceed on any lesser charge or charges, but only in
13 Juvenile Court under the provisions of this Article. The
14 State's Attorney may proceed under the criminal laws of this

23 prosecuted under the criminal laws of this State.
24 (c) (i) If after trial or plea the minor is convicted of
25 any offense covered by paragraph (a) of this subsection (5),
26 then, in sentencing the minor, the court shall have available

28 Chapter V of the Unified Code of Corrections.
29 (ii) If after trial or plea the court finds that the
30 minor committed an offense not covered by paragraph (a) of
31 this subsection (5), the conviction shall not invalidate the
32 verdict or the prosecution of the minor under the criminal
33 laws of this State; however, unless the State requests a
34 hearing for the purpose of sentencing the minor under Chapter
-11- LRB9213222RCsbam
1 V of the Unified Code of Corrections, the Court must proceed
2 under Sections 5-705 and 5-710 of this Article. To request a
3 hearing, the State must file a written motion within 10 days
4 following the entry of a finding or the return of a verdict.

8 minor should be sentenced under Chapter V of the Unified Code
9 of Corrections. In making its determination, the court shall
10 consider among other matters: (a) whether there is evidence
11 that the offense was committed in an aggressive and
12 premeditated manner; (b) the age of the minor; (c) the
13 previous delinquent history of the minor; (d) whether there
14 are facilities particularly available to the Juvenile Court
15 or the Department of Corrections, Juvenile Division, for the
16 treatment and rehabilitation of the minor; (e) whether the
17 security of the public requires sentencing under Chapter V of
18 the Unified Code of Corrections; and (f) whether the minor
19 possessed a deadly weapon when committing the offense. The
20 rules of evidence shall be the same as if at trial. If after
21 the hearing the court finds that the minor should be
22 sentenced under Chapter V of the Unified Code of Corrections,
23 then the court shall sentence the minor accordingly having
24 available to it any or all dispositions so prescribed.
25 (6) The definition of delinquent minor under Section
26 5-120 of this Article shall not apply to any minor who,
27 pursuant to subsection (1), (2), or (3) or Section 5-805, or
28 5-810, has previously been placed under the jurisdiction of
29 the criminal court and has been convicted of a crime under an
30 adult criminal or penal statute. Such a minor shall be
31 subject to prosecution under the criminal laws of this State.
32 (7) The procedures set out in this Article for the
33 investigation, arrest and prosecution of juvenile offenders
34 shall not apply to minors who are excluded from jurisdiction
-12- LRB9213222RCsbam

2 age shall be kept separate from confined adults.
3 (8) Nothing in this Act prohibits or limits the
4 prosecution of any minor for an offense committed on or after
5 his or her 17th birthday even though he or she is at the time
6 of the offense a ward of the court.
7 (9) If an original petition for adjudication of wardship
8 alleges the commission by a minor 13 years of age or over of
9 an act that constitutes a crime under the laws of this State,
10 the minor, with the consent of his or her counsel, may, at
11 any time before commencement of the adjudicatory hearing,
12 file with the court a motion that criminal prosecution be
13 ordered and that the petition be dismissed insofar as the act
14 or acts involved in the criminal proceedings are concerned.
15 If such a motion is filed as herein provided, the court shall
16 enter its order accordingly.
17 (10) If a minor is subject to the provisions of
18 subsection (2) of this Section, other than a minor charged
19 with a Class X felony violation of the Illinois Controlled
20 Substances Act, any party including the minor or the court
21 sua sponte may, before trial, move for a hearing for the
22 purpose of trying and sentencing the minor as a delinquent
23 minor. To request a hearing, the party must file a motion
24 prior to trial. Reasonable notice of the motion shall be
25 given to all parties. On its own motion or upon the filing of
26 a motion by one of the parties including the minor, the court
27 shall conduct a hearing to determine whether the minor should
28 be tried and sentenced as a delinquent minor under this
29 Article. In making its determination, the court shall
30 consider among other matters:
31 (a) The age of the minor;
32 (b) Any previous delinquent or criminal history of the
33 minor;
34 (c) Any previous abuse or neglect history of the minor;
-13- LRB9213222RCsbam
1 (d) Any mental health or educational history of the

3 (e) Whether there is probable cause to support the
4 charge, whether the minor is charged through accountability,
5 and whether there is evidence the minor possessed a deadly
6 weapon or caused serious bodily harm during the offense.
7 Any material that is relevant and reliable shall be
8 admissible at the hearing. In all cases, the judge shall
9 enter an order permitting prosecution under the criminal laws
10 of Illinois unless the judge makes a finding based on a
11 preponderance of the evidence that the minor would be
12 amenable to the care, treatment, and training programs
13 available through the facilities of the juvenile court based
14 on an evaluation of the factors listed in this subsection
15 (10).
